As the $148 billion cloud market continues to grow at a rate of 25 percent annually, the open-source communitycan take much responsibility for the adoption and innovation driving businesses to go all in on the cloud, according to Krish Subramanian, founder and principal analyst at Rishidot Research LLC.

“I would even go one step further and say open source is completely disrupting the traditional enterprise software in modern business,” Subramanian said.

According to one survey that included 3,400 business participants, 55 percent of respondents employ open source for infrastructure, and 65 percent said open source helps them to speed application development.

Subramanian spoke with John Furrier (@furrier) and Peter Burris (@plburris), co-hosts of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile live streaming studio, during the Cisco DevNet Create event in San Francisco. The trio analyzed the event and Cisco Systems Inc.’s involvement with the development community.
